An answer to 'Pickguard or not to pickguard' (new video)

[AcousticAl]

This follows my original video on how I removed a Taylor pickguard from my GS Mini Mahogany...
My reusable pickguard arrived yesterday so I tried it out in this video.

There's also a shout out to TG near the end if you make it that far.

Cheers!

Thanks for the look Al. The cling-film pick-guard didn't do anything for me! Scratch 'em up like Tommy Emmanuel does, I say!

Hey Chris,

To be honest- it will probably be off 75% of the time. I just don't play hard.
Maybe I'll put it on if I'm at a party passing it around..

Great video, Al! It's almost like you're a professional! One question- do you have to use a Costco card to get the pickguard to adhere? Would a Sam's Club card work equally as well?

Loved how you busted out the term, "applique," Mr. Crafty!

You gotta be so careful making these videos! Everyone's a critic!

Hey Al,

Wally's a lot quieter than Mohawk, but I'll bet Mohawk doesn't drive you nuts in the middle of the night licking himself. My niece Shelby has a cockatoo, also -- his name is Tchotchke.

Nice video on the static-cling pick guard. I'm probably a lot more physical on the guitar, so I wouldn't play without one. To each his own.

Wally... wally..
Trying to remember..

Yes, Mohawk is a piece of work.. and a lot of work.
Still waiting for the effort to pay off.

As I've told others- he's lucky that he was so expensive!

Brother-in-law. The restraining order is due to expire any day now.

Wally's talented! If I could do that, I'd never leave the house!!
